How Does Halle Berry Look So Youthful at 60? Inside the Actress' Healthy Wellness Routine

Halle Berry turns 60 today, and she has spent the better part of the last year making sure everyone knows she isn't dreading it. The Oscar winner rang in the milestone early from Fiji, and looks as amazing as ever. Here's what that looks like in practice — from her trainer-approved workouts to hormone therapy.

The Workout: "Movement As Medicine"

Berry has trained with celebrity coach Peter Lee Thomas for years, and by his own account she has the discipline of someone a third her age — he told People in 2018 that he was "shell-shocked" to learn her real age given her athleticism.

Her workouts are famously varied: boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai, plyometrics, and heavy strength and conditioning work, a mix Thomas keeps deliberately unpredictable so Berry never knows exactly what a session holds. She trains most days of the week, favors push-ups and higher-rep bodyweight circuits, and famously ramped up to roughly four hours of daily training while preparing for her MMA role in Bruised — per Marie Claire Australia.

The Diet: Keto, Fasting, and No Sugar Since 22

Berry's eating plan traces back to a diabetes diagnosis at 22, which pushed her toward a high-fat, moderate-protein, low-carb ketogenic diet that she still follows — she told Shape in 2023 that the diagnosis effectively became "a negative that I was able to turn into a positive." She also practices a loose form of intermittent fasting, typically skipping breakfast and eating her first meal in the early afternoon, according to Marie Claire Australia and Women's Health Australia. She's said she doesn't have much of a sweet tooth but does allow herself the occasional low-sugar red wine, which she's called her "guilty pleasure" in Harper's Bazaar.

The Skincare: Simplicity, SPF, and Peptides

For someone whose complexion gets scrutinised on every red carpet, Berry's day-to-day skincare is surprisingly minimal — a four-step routine of cleanser, toner, moisturiser, and eye cream, according to Who What Wear. The one non-negotiable is sun protection: she's said she has worn sunscreen every day since age 16, favouring an SPF 30 formula (we like Supergoop! Play Everyday Lotion).

Hormone Therapy and the "Menopause Mission"

Perhaps the most candid part of Berry's wellness story is hormonal. She has spoken openly about starting bioidentical hormone therapy — a "cocktail" that reportedly includes testosterone, progesterone, and estriol — as part of managing perimenopause and menopause. In a February 2026 interview with The Cut, Berry said turning 59 had made her feel "marginalised" and "devalued" by an industry and culture that sidelines ageing women — and that she'd decided not to "allow myself to be erased," calling her advocacy for women's health the "formidable cause" of her second act. That mission led her to found the women's wellness platform Respin, and, as reported by TODAY in May 2026, to a new partnership with women's health company Nella aimed at helping women better advocate for their own care.

The Mindset

If there's a thread running through all of it, it's Berry's insistence that none of this is about clinging to youth — it's about capability and confidence. "Age is just a number that they stick on us at birth," she told Marie Claire, adding that she feels she's "at the pinnacle" heading into this decade.
